Blogging Beautifully For Today’s Brides

I want to feel like a “Rock Star”. Well Blair of Blair Phillips Photography will grant you your wish! Photography on the edge with grit and style is how I would describe this photographer’s style. Each picture is a work of art that delivers so much emotion. When viewing his work, you look at the faces of his clients and wonder what their thinking as Blair seems to bring out parts of their psyche that they are not even aware of. I am a huge fan of this photographer and I know that you will love his work as well !

Meet Blair Phillips and Enjoy Beauty!

RJD: Blair do you have a background in fashion photography? Your pictures are sleek, modern and sophisticated like a New York City fashion shoot.

BPP: I do not have a formal background/training in any particular style of photography. I am self- taught and I seem to have a natural talent. However, my photography style has been described as eclectic elegance. I feel that there are too many photographers photographing the same things. Blair Phillips Photography likes to be different! Our company has been recognized as an international award-winning photography studio. I am also a national speaker/educator to other photographers. And we have been featured on a nationally syndicated Lifetime wedding television show. We are very excited!

RJD: How long have you been photographing brides?

BPP: We have been in the business for 4 years now and photograph between 40-60 weddings per year and 200+ studio sessions per year. It’s a lot but we love it!

RJD: What would you say is your work ethic?

BPP: Work hard and play hard! Giving brides something different and edgy. Our new studio is a couture studio and we like to give a posh, high-end, unforgettable experience to each client.

RJD: Tell us about your favorite wedding experience?

BPP: Well, we had a bridal couple that planned something pretty spectacular! The groom was raised by his stepfather, but still had his biological last name from his father. The bridal couple had their last name legally changed to the stepfather’s last name on their marriage certificate. So, at the altar after the preacher announced them as bride and groom, he said “I now present to you, Mr. and Mrs. and the new last name (of the step father). None of the parents had any idea. They were blown away…still gives me chill bumps!

BPP: HUGE!! I expect us to still be in the area, but traveling to major cities as our destination wedding division expands. We hopefully will still be educating other photographers on a national circuit (as I am doing now). And still giving our bridal couples the experience of a lifetime!
